Here's a simple version of one of my favorite combos (I wrote about it before here). This plate made a perfect late brunch on Saturday, my day off yoga and thus day to sleep in and enjoy the morning at home. The recipe is so sweet and easy that you don't even need to think about measurements.
Arugula and bib lettuce with browned sweet potato and avocado
Wash, dry and plate some fresh arugula plus any other greens you have on hand (Here I used arugula from my garden and some local bib lettuce). Lightly drizzle with olive oil (the avocado will be the main source of fat here) and sprinkle with spirulina powder, smoked sea salt (plain sea salt works too) and cracked black pepper.
Fill a small lidded pot with about 1" of water and heat to boil. Slice some sweet potato into rounds or half moons and add to the pot. Cover and steam until softened but not mushy. Heat 1Tb coconut oil in a cast iron skillet. Transfer the sweet potato to the skillet and cook several minutes on each side until nicely browned.
Place the browned sweet potato rounds over the greens and top with sliced avocado. Voila!
Everything sounds deliscious! I was wondering if you had an opinion on the health effects involved in eating hydrogenated oil?
